My Little Island Life - Alex Apostol - Bog

Kleio thought living in paradise would be a dream, but she quickly realizes it's nothing more than a living nightmare. Whisked away to the island of Oahu by her new Navy sailor husband, twenty year old Kleio realizes she hardly knows the man she married. Looking for an escape from the vicious cycle of abusive boyfriends, Kleio soon finds out that Danny is just another part of that cycle. When she receives a disturbing email from his ex explaining that he had been asking both of them to marry him at the same time, Kleio's world spirals out of control. The only reason she's married to Danny is because another girl had said no. Feeling trapped on the tiny island, Kleio does whatever she can to find an escape from her marriage, and to figure out who she is and what she really wants in life. Can she ever find happiness, or will she be crushed by the darkness of her depression forever? "It's a story that can happen to anyone. How it's told is relatable with great characters with satisfying arcs. The pacing is perfect and it never seemed like a chore to read and with a book like this and this long that seems to be the case more often than not. This is a testament to the talent on display here. Please do yourself a favor and read this little gem and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did." 4.5/5 Stars on Goodreads by nvsblmnstr "Such a refreshing read!" 5/5 Stars on Goodreads by Evgeniia
